The former lol. I’m a software dev and I’m ashamed at how we keep making the internet worse by just doing whatever the money tells us to do. It’s even worse when we “innovate” for them in this way.
I’ve tried talking to devs online about how we need at minimum collective bargaining, but we view ourselves as some kind of petit bourgeois, immune to the normal ravages of capital… sigh.
We’re now seeing how much that is worth now that interest rates are shit and there’s a glut of surplus labour to compete over the limited job pool.
Although many of the devs I speak to are like me: just trying to get by without selling out to the really giant corporations.
